Brady zips passes 4 days after hurting shoulder


FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP)—Tom Brady’s(notes) throwing shoulder seems just fine.
The
New England Patriots quarterback threw passes of up to 25 yards at practice Tuesday four days after suffering a sore shoulder when he was tackled in a game against the Washington Redskins. He threw hard passes from a shorter distance.
Coach Bill Belichick didn’t say if Brady would play against the
New York Giants on Thursday night in the final exhibition game for both teams.
At first, Brady and backups
Andrew Walter(notes) and Brian Hoyer took turns throwing to a Patriots staffer. Walter and Hoyer then went to the other end of the field, leaving Brady with the staffer and quarterbacks coach Bill O’Brien.
Then Brady threw 16 passes from different angles and speeds before lining up for an 11-on-11 drill.
